Swimming pool route on strats and tone

resonance frequency x 2pi = sq root(equivilent stiffness/object mass)

therefore with a reduction in mass,resonance frequency actually increases

that's probably the theory for resonance chambers in certain guitar, whether it actually works in real life is another thing. i dont see the problem with timex posting this info.

Basically what I mean, is that sometime, somethings are better left unsaid. Don't you agree??

perhaps you could apply this to yourself.

If I want someone to nail some wood, I just say "wack it in!!!".

that pretty much explains poor workmanship.
 
Actually its not related to guitars at all. Its only a generic equation to show that there's a relation between mass and frequency since the topic was on how the different routings would affect the guitar's behavior.I certainly did not put it up to show off but only as a point of information which some have taken unfavorably.
 
yeahhh.... I'm getting my 3 sgl routed black strat body routed to swimming pool specs tonite... 8)
 
My guitar currently has a HSS config, I wanna try HSS and HSH, or maybe SSS. I was thinking if I should change the body or retain, for tonal reasons. I don't have a HSH, HSS or SSS strat to compare to.

On a side note: does a HSH config allow the use of HSS or SSS?
 
And come on guys, lets keep this thread an educational one. Timex was just sharing his views from a theoretical standpoint, from an angle not many people know of and have access to. Theory and real life applications may differ, but theory can always prove why a real life application works, and i believe that was what he meant his message as.
 
In fact i think he just proven why a guitar with more mass has more low end! Haha.. Just realised that! Lower resonant frequency (due to more mass) equals more bass right? So a guitar with less mass, maybe due to the swimming pool, will be brighter sounding? By the way sorry for breaking my post into so many posts.. My handphone has a limit in text entry
